The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 468

Chapter 468 

Melanie was not familiar with the people here, so she decided to find a corner and stay there. Unexpectedly, as soon as she sat down, she saw a familiar face approaching her with a wine glass. 

Joshua also wore glasses, giving him a refined appearance. His hair was combed upward, and Melanie did not recognize him at first glance. He was still shy when he opened his mouth to greet Melanie. “Melanie, long time no see.” 

She looked up. “I heard you recently got promoted to general manager. Impressive.” 

Although Melanie was not intentionally keeping track, she would still come across some news about the people in her social circle. Joshua was no exception. 

He was momentarily stunned. “You’re still paying attention to my affairs?” 

This reply left Melanie at a loss for words. She pursed her lips silently. 

However, before she could say anything, she heard a casual voice reply, “Of course, she cares about you. You might not be the only one, though.” 

Melanie could tell from the tone that it was Simon. She cast a cold and indifferent glance in his direction but immediately noticed the young man beside him. Her brows furrowed together. This person’s facial features resembled Xander a lot. Melanie recalled that Eugene mentioned Xander had a younger brother. 

Her gaze lingered for a few seconds when she heard Simon sarcastically say, “See that? See how her attention shifted to another man in just the blink of an eye?” 

Joshua felt a bit awkward. “It’s not…” 

Melanie’s expression turned cold as she looked at Simon. “Simon, do you think others will mistake you for a mute if you don’t rattle off?” 

Simon looked at Melanie, the mockery on his face intensifying. He turned to the young man beside him in the next moment and said, “Xavier, do you see? This is the woman with your brother now.” 

Xavier’s facial features did resemble Xander’s to some extent, but they lacked his elegance. Instead, his elongated eyes made him appear somewhat delicate. 

Hearing what Simon said, Xavier threw a faint glance at Melanie, paused for a moment, and said, “He has good taste.” 

Simon laughed. “Good taste but poor judgment.” 

Melanie’s expression turned even colder when they discussed her so openly as if she were an object. However, looking at Xavier reminded her of what Eugene mentioned before, that the Solomon family was grooming Xavier to be their successor. 

If Xavier had a good relationship with Simon’s family, it might not be good news for Xander. 

After they were done with their conversation, Xavier shifted his gaze back to Melanie and called out to her, “Miss Smith.” His tone carried a hint of playfulness, and the corners of his eyes were raised in a calculating manner.

“I heard from Simon that you did quite well at LeapCo before, and now you’re with Xander in his small studio. That seems like a waste of talent. How about coming to work for me? I’ll offer you double the salary.” 

He smiled slightly, the air of sophistication around him persisting as he continued, “I meant double the salary you had at LeapCo.” 

Melanie’s expression remained unchanged, but her gaze toward Xavier became slightly stern. I currently have no intention of changing jobs.” 

“What’s the appeal of following Xander?” Xavier asked casually, but there was a hint of arrogance in his words. “He doesn’t even have the right to return the Solomon family now. He’s even got that cuckoo of a mother. What can he even offer you?” 

“Miss Smith, I heard you’re in need of money,” Xavier continued nonchalantly. “Why bother staying with Xander and continue to have money issues?” 

Melanie’s eyes narrowed as she replied steadily, “Money isn’t the only consideration for me.”
